My wife is in Iraq right now, and will be until next year. When she gets home, she'll of been gone for over half our marriage all told over the last 5 years.
It's difficult. It sucks. Both parties have to work at it, be *very* understanding and accesible, and considerate beyond reasoning.
You will get upset. You will get jealous. Odds are so will she. I can't think of any advice I could give you that would help you out. I don't think anything anyone would of told me would really of helped, as each situation/relationship is so drasticaly different.
The moral of the story, though, is that it *can* work, though, so take heart.
